Adulthood

So, Wednesday was a big deadline day for all of us with our controversy papers and whatnot...  The STRANGEST epiphany came over me:
 
So, I sat there winding down slightly, having just sent off an article on the credibility of Wikipedia for a 4pm deadline...

I realized slowly that it was past 4:30, the day was more than half over, and I was sitting at the table, wearing a coffeeboob-stained sports bra and a pair of Nintendo boxer shorts.  I had interviewed a Harvard professor, one of the original Wikipedia editors, and two authors that morning, all sitting there like that. I totally hadn't showered, Hell, I wasn't even sure that I had brushed my teeth.

And all I had ingested since waking up at 9am was three pots of coffee and one piece of American cheese...  

Yet...somehow... magically... I'm considered an adult...WTF society?





(I feel more and more like the chick from Hyperbole and a Half sometimes...)

  1. Idk why but the "one piece of American cheese" just made me sad/laugh a lot
